NEIPA - New England IPA 6.5 º

Zeta Beer

Zeta Fluor is a lush Hazy IPA that exemplifies the "tropical explosion" of New Zealand and New World hops. The use of Cryo Mosaic and Pacific Sunrise drives intense layers of ripe mango and sweet pineapple, while Motueka contributes a bright, zesty lime-like lift. Unique accents of creamy coconut and subtle banana emerge from the Sabro addition, creating a complex, juice-like profile. This beer pours with a signature opaque turbidity, leading into a silky, medium-full body that carries the heavy dry-hop load without harshness. It is a masterful display of hop-derived fruitiness, finishing soft and remarkably drinkable.

Appearance. Deep straw to pale gold (4-6 SRM) with a brilliant, opaque turbidity that creates a luminous shine. It is topped by a dense, meringue-like white head with excellent retention and thick, sculpted lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma dominated by a tropical fruit medley. Prominent notes of crushed pineapple and ripe mango from Mosaic and Pacific Sunrise are joined by a distinct coconut and cream sweetness from Sabro. Motueka provides a subtle citrus undertone. The malt is low and neutral, offering a simple bready, grainy foundation. No caramel or toast is present; fermentation esters are clean and merge seamlessly with the juicy hop profile.

Taste. An immediate explosion of ripe tropical fruit flavors, featuring watermelon, sweet mango, and a hint of banana. The Sabro hops contribute a unique coconut character that enhances the beer’s juice-like impression. Malt flavors are low and lightly bready, providing a soft platform for the heavy hop load. Bitterness is low to medium-low, well-integrated and never sharp. The finish is soft and slightly off-dry, with a lingering aftertaste of pineapple and citrus zest.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a remarkably silky and smooth texture. Carbonation is moderate, providing enough lift to prevent heaviness. There is a very subtle, well-integrated alcohol warmth consistent with its 6.5% strength. No astringency or hop-derived harshness is present.
